OUR OFFICE HAS PREVIOUSLY FILED A COMPLAINT IN REGARD TO A 2007 SATURN SKY THAT WE BELIEVE IS DEFECTIVE. MY CLIENT'S NAME IS MATT CASTRO AND THE PENDING ODI NUMBER IS 10237967. ON SEPTEMBER 10, 2008 GENERAL MOTORS SENT OUT AN ACCIDENT INVESTIGATOR TO CONDUCT AN INSPECTION OF THE VEHICLE. UPON COMPLETION OF THE INSPECTION, MR. BRISCOE NOTED SOMETHING PECULIAR ON THE SDM INFORMATION BOX. MR. BRISCOE, THE ACCIDENT INVESTIGATOR, FOUND THAT THE INFORMATION GIVEN ON THE BOX STATED THE MY CLIENT MATT CASTRO DID NOT HAVE HIS SEAT BELT ON AT THE TIME THE ACCIDENT OCCURRED. HOWEVER, POLICE REPORTS AND POLICE STATEMENTS PROVIDE THAT MY CLIENT HAD TO HAVE HIS SAFETY BELT CUT AWAY TO EXTRACT HIM FROM THE VEHICLE. THIS DISCREPANCY IS OF MONUMENTAL IMPORTANCE IF WE ARE TO RELY ON THE ACCURACY OF THE SDM DEVICES. SDM DEVICES MAIN PURPOSE IS TO PROVIDE ACCURATE DATA AT THE TIME AN ACCIDENT OCCURS.

SATURN SKY FITTED WITH GOODYEAR EAGLE F1 GS-2 TIRES. BECAUSE OF NO TRACTION ON SLICK ROADWAY, CAR SPUN OUT WHILE SLOWLY ACCELERATING, CROSSED TWO LANES, AND HIT GUARDRAIL. ANTI-LOCK BRAKES AND COUNTER STEERING HAD NO EFFECT. *TR
I have experienced peeling of the chrome plating (over plastic) on the INSIDE door release handle on the DRIVER'S side door. When I first noticed this, I cut my fingers on the peeling chrome plating. I had to continually cut back the sharp edge, or carefully reach over it, to prevent further cuts to my fingers. The door handle is not available as a service part from GM for the Saturn Sky (and similar Pontiac Solstice). According to parts catalogs, it was only available as part of the inner door assembly, which is long obsolete for the driver's door side. I was forced to adapt a part from the Chevrolet Cobalt (and used an aftermarket part from Dorman) to replace the handle when I got tired of dealing with cuts. There are a number of YouTube videos showing how to replace the handle, which indicates this is not a one-off problem.
AFTER I PARKED MY SATURN SKY IN MY DAUGHTER-IN-LAW'S DRIVEWAY FOR APPROXIMATELY 15 MINUTES, MY SON-IN-LAW AND I HEARD A LOUD "POP" FROM MY SATURN SKY. ABOUT 5 MINUTES LATER, MY SATURN SKY DRIFTED BACKWARDS OUT OF THE DRIVEWAY (SLIGHT DOWNHILL DIRECTION) AND INTO THE STREET. MY SON-IN-LAW RAN AFTER THE CAR AND CAUGHT UP TO IT JUST AS STOPPED DRIFTING BACKWARDS UPHILL IN THE STREET AND BEGAN DRIFTING FORWARD IN A DOWNHILL DIRECTION. HE WAS ABLE TO REACH INTO THE CAR (THE CONVERTIBLE TOP WAS DOWN) AND SET THE EMERGENCY BRAKE. WHILE DOING SO, THE CAR RAN OVER HIS FOOT INJURING HIS TOE. THANK GOD THERE WERE NO CHILDREN PLAYING IN THE DRIVEWAY! THE EMERGENCY BRAKE WAS INITIALLY SET SINCE THE DRIVEWAY DOES HAVE A SLIGHT SLOPE TOWARDS THE STREET, BUT AFTER COOLING DOWN FOR APPROXIMATELY 15 MINUTES, THE EMERGENCY BRAKE RELEASED. *TR
THE LIMITED SLIP DIFFERENTIAL FAILED ON MY 2007 SATURN SKY. THE FAILURE OF THIS COMPONENT CAUSED THE CAR TO SUDDENLY AND VIOLENTLY FISHTAIL WHILE MAKING A LEFT TURN AT NORMAL HIGHWAY SPEEDS. THE CAR SUBSEQUENTLY SMASHED INTO THE CENTER MEDIAN, THEN BOUNCED INTO THE ADJACENT LANE WHERE IT COLLIDED WITH A LARGE SUV. THE SUV ROLLED OVER MY HOOD AND FLIPPED OVER ON ITS TOP. FORTUNATELY NO ONE WAS INJURED. THE ACCIDENT RESULTED IN THE SUV BEING TOTALED AND SEVERE FRONT END DAMAGE TO MY CAR. THE FAILURE IN THE DIFFERENTIAL WAS FIRST DETECTED BY THE BODY REPAIR TECHNICIAN AND LATER VERIFIED BY A QUALIFIED GM DEALER. IT IS NOW BEING REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY. CONDITION: WEATHER WAS SUNNY AND CLEAR. NO OIL OR WATER ON THE ROADWAY. SAFETY RECALL NHTSA 07V589000, POWER TRAIN AXLE ASSEMBLY AXLE SHAFT SEAL, WAS PERFORMED APPROXIMATELY 6 MONTHS EARLIER.
I HAVE A 2007 SATURN SKY REDLINE AND CRASHED IT. ONSTAR DISPATCHED THE CALL AS AN "AIRBAG DEPLOYED ACCIDENT". THE AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. I BRUISED MY RIB CAGE BADLY FROM SLAMMING INTO THE STEERING WHEEL, EVEN THOUGH IT WAS A LOW MILEAGE, FRONTAL IMPACT. THE CAR IS STILL IN REPAIR. *TR

As stated in previous complaint my air bag has failed again. Why is gm allowed to fix these with the exact same system that fails again?
Air bag warning light remains on. Understand that GM issued a recall for this safety hazard that I never received.
